Is your church or ministry on Twitter?
Twitter is such a valuable resource for me. On Twitter I discover what other churches and ministries are doing. I get inspiration for the ministries I’m involved in (from churches and ministries around the corner and around the world). I ‘meet’ Christians who are passionate about the same things I am. I get answers to questions. I learn how to do things better. I am encouraged to see how God is at work in and through his people.
More and more churches, pastors and ministries are signing up with Twitter. Below is a list of those that I know of (I’ve kept this list Australian-centric, as most Create conference attendees are from Australia). Some of these aren’t tweeting regularly enough to really be classified as tweeters, but hopefully by listing them here they might be encouraged to tweet more regularly! Also, my apologies for those I’ve accidentally left off this list!
If you know of other churches, pastors or ministries that are tweeting that aren’t listed below (and there are lots!), please share them by adding the details in the comments section. Here we go, in no particular order:

Great to hear from you all, and encouraging to see a growing number of people on Twitter. Keep them coming in! I’ve started to follow each of you (well, those I wasn’t following beforehand!)
@jmoff - @justin was a mistake (when I was putting the list together I thought that was your username!)
